Lane restrictions set for I-65

Indiana Department of Transportation contractor E&B Paving, Inc. will reduce southbound I-65 to two lanes beginning on or after Sunda to complete pavement and drainage work in Bartholomew County.

The lane restrictions will take place just south of the Columbus Exit (Exit 68) and are expected remain in place through Thursday. The speed limit will be reduced from 70 mph to 60 mph and a temporary barrier wall will be utilized while work is in progress.

This project is part of a $65 million added travel lanes contract awarded to Force Construction Co. in October 2020.
